    Summary

    Young Tony’s been injured after jumping off the school roof to test a pair of wings he made in art class. With his parents out of the country, it’s up to Obadiah to tend to him in his hands-off way, and to try and harness the intelligence and energy already on display. “Probably when I’m really old, like twenty, I’ll be all out of ideas, and then I’ll just play all the time.”

    Summary

    It’s Pepper’s first Christmas, and Tony has given her a special gift: edible underwear! Naturally, she’s eating it. In the elevator with Obadiah and Joanna, on the way to a meeting. Tony literally has a meltdown from amusement. “Barn owls, squealing pigs, ducks—once I started mooing I’d have the whole farm covered.”

    Summary

    Tony, in an over-the-top act of self-centeredness (even for him), kidnaps Pepper and forces her to come to Las Vegas with him for a conference. As they walk through the hotel’s casino lobby, he quickly discovers why she’s found it prudent to avoid the city in the past. “Could you get me a drink, Pepper? But don’t bother to put ice in it, just hold it in your hand for a minute.”

    Summary

    Tony is hard at work on his designs for once, and counting on his new assistant not to break his concentration. Finally he allows Pepper to bring him lunch and attempt to clean spilled ink from his pants. Obadiah barges in at just the wrong moment to spoil things. “This is one of those situations that looks really bad, but is in fact perfectly innocent.”

    Summary

    Because words are just words and nothing good ever came easy.

    Or, if you want a less vague summary:

    Steve and Tony are finally together, living in the same city and everything's roses. But Steve’s got a shitty record when it comes to relationships and Tony has a habit of drinking away his problems. Add in a dash of Obadiah Stane and some well-meaning but overly meddlesome friends and suddenly roses smell a lot more like...well what OutKast said.

    Summary

    Obadiah calls teenage Tony at college in the middle of the night to inform him of his parents’ deaths in a car accident, and guides him through the funeral with a firm but not necessarily wholesome hand. Each anniversary of their death is an opportunity for him to reinforce his power over Tony, at least until Pepper comes along. “Enjoying life. While it lasted.”

    Summary

    Finding Pepper too unusual to just embrace wholeheartedly the way Tony does, Obadiah does a little digging and confronts Pepper with her mysterious background, involving fires, deaths, and a stay at a place called the Brookhaven Institute, for people with severe neurological disorders. If he thinks that story is strange, luckily he never learns the real one—that she’s actually an energy-based trans-dimensional being occupying a synthetic body. “I don’t want to get too sci-fi on you here, although my life has basically become one big comic book at this point so certain ideas are difficult to avoid.”

    Summary

    Another Christmas, another disaster for Tony. This time he wakes up in the hospital with short-term memory loss after overdosing on painkillers and alcohol—and the only one around to listen to his repetitive conversation is Obadiah. Fortunately he later gets to spend a late Christmas at the Rhodes house, with Pepper in tow for the first time. "Cool! I'm just like that guy in Memento!"

    Summary

    Tony and Pepper are rocking out one day when that buzzkill Obadiah butts in to insist that Tony clarify one of his designs. Tony takes the request in stride, fulfilling it in his usual brilliant, obnoxious manner. "Dude, I just invented a new branch of mathematics, that's what I did!"

    Summary

    A dinner gathering of co-workers is the opportunity for Tony to mention that his and Pepper's 'song' is "Every Breath You Take" by the Police, which they dance to while Tony interrogates her about the motives of a newly-hired executive who seems interested in her, if not necessarily interested in the book she's been reading about frogs. "You hit on Pepper, expect Tony to hit you."

    Summary

    Three tales of Christmas, Tony and Pepper style. First, Tony has an epiphany about his relationship with Pepper while watching David Bowie in Labyrinth at the Rhodeses' one Christmas Eve. Then, a Pepper-less Tony suffers through a temporary assistant who quits on him while Obadiah tries desperately to get him to a meeting. Finally, on their second Christmas, Pepper creates a unique and garish tree for Tony that he feels compelled to keep. "Isn't there some kind of rule that says if I don't have an assistant, I don't have to work?"

    Summary

    Tony, Pepper, Rhodey, and Rae attend the company summer picnic. Tony protests that Rae has no basis except her fevered imagination for suspecting that he and Pepper are romantically involved—other than getting dressed in front of each other, holding hands, feeding each other… Also Tony relates the story of taking Pepper to a weapons testing ground and realizing how affected she was by explosions. "Pepper. Loved. Fireworks. It was an unnatural love."

    Summary

    Tony toys with his new assistant by telling her he wants to cancel a meeting she's worked hard to plan so he can go surfing.

However, it's Tony who suffers when he realizes Pepper might actually cancel the meeting, which is the last thing he wants—and he can't get a straight answer from her about it. "I can totally respect it if you were just messing with me. I deserved it."

    Summary

    Tony gets drunk. And drives too fast. Then gets hit by another car that runs a red light. Then gets arrested after assaulting a police officer. Did I mention the two prostitutes in the car with him? Fortunately Pepper is there to talk some sense into him, although Obadiah threatens that Pepper will have to be fired as punishment for Tony's massive screw-up. "His callousness was really making me nauseous (yes, I know, pot, kettle)."

    Summary

    Tony Stark is not the same kid SHIELD had caught hacking into their system all those years ago. He's mature now, thank you very much.

    Okay, so he still has a penchant for hacking into systems that are supposed to be 'highly secure' and he may or may not forget to feed himself sometimes...but he's old enough to make his own decisions, dammit! And he's getting really sick of everyone - or maybe just a specific someone - treating him like a kid still.

    (Rated T for now, but rating may very well go up)
